Tracing events for heap statistics

        The tracing support in HotSpot should include events to get statistics for the contents of the heap. It should be possible to use these events to create a summary showing how much of the heap is occupied by each class present on the heap. For performance reasons it may be necessary to have a cut off point at some low percentage and skip classes that only occupies a small fragment of the heap. If possible, an "other classes" kind of event could be sent with the total space occupied by these classes.
